Augmentir Expands its AI Platform with New Augmented Reality (AR) Features for Connected Workers in Manufacturing

Augmentir’s AR extension builds on its AI-native platform and agentic AI capabilities, giving manufacturers smarter ways to onboard, upskill, and support connected workers across the industrial enterprise.

September 23, 2025 – Augmentir, the world’s #1 AI company for connected frontline work, today announced the availability of its new Augmented Reality (AR) extension. This addition further strengthens Augmentir’s mission to help industrial companies empower their frontline workforce with smarter, more connected, and more efficient digital tools.

Augmentir’s founding team brings some of the deepest AR expertise in the industry, with roots tracing back to the development of PTC’s Vuforia Studio—the leading industrial AR solution for nearly a decade. Today’s announcement builds on the mobile AR tools Augmentir prototyped in 2020 as part of its early innovation efforts. While these prototypes generated strong customer interest, the industry’s immediate needs centered around higher-priority Connected Worker challenges, including optimized content conversion, complex work execution, skills and training management, job scheduling, issue management, enterprise integration, scalability, and security.

Now, with renewed industry demand and customer input, Augmentir is reintroducing AR to its platform in a way that is highly targeted, practical, and impactful.

Augmentir AR: Purpose-Built for Training, Onboarding, and Context-Aware Work Support

The new Augmentir AR add-on has been designed specifically to:

  • Accelerate onboarding and training by immersing workers in real equipment and processes.
  • Provide just-in-time support for complex or infrequent tasks.
  • Complement—not replace—the broader Connected Worker experience.

“Industrial AR has seen many false starts, where vendors mistakenly positioned it as the primary tool for work execution or as a standalone product,” said Russ Fadel, CEO and Co-Founder of Augmentir. “In reality, AR delivers its greatest impact in training, onboarding, and initial task execution. With Augmentir AR, we’re building on our AI-native foundation to dynamically deliver immersive guidance where and when it adds the most value—without burdening workers once they’ve mastered a task. This new AR capability extends that value, supporting workers from their first day on the job through their entire career.”

Already, some of the world’s most innovative manufacturers—including Colgate-Palmolive, Graphic Packaging, Hunter Industries, Mondelez, Armstrong World Industries, Muller Group, and AkzoNobel—rely on Augmentir to empower their frontline teams and accelerate digital transformation initiatives. These companies are realizing transformational value across frontline operations, including:

  • 82% reduction in new hire onboarding time
  • 37% improvement in worker productivity
  • 27% decrease in equipment downtime
  • 24% reduction in quality issues
  • 21% reduction in safety incidents

AI-Native Innovation Powering Agentic Manufacturing

Augmentir’s manufacturing customers have leveraged the company’s AI for years to unlock new levels of frontline performance. Through the Augie Industrial GenAI Suite, manufacturers can transform existing content—such as training videos, existing SOPs, checklists, and work instructions—into native step-by-step, interactive procedures that become digital smart twins of the existing content. In addition, customers use Augmentir’s True Productivity™ and True Performance™ metrics to gain unprecedented visibility into workforce performance, helping them identify capacity gaps, and uncover opportunities for upskilling and reskilling.

At the core of this vision is Augmentir’s AI Agent Studio, a no-code environment that allows manufacturers to design, deploy, and scale custom AI agents tailored to their operations. These agents deliver intelligent support for tasks such as training, troubleshooting, and workflow optimization—now further enhanced by immersive AR experiences.

Augmentir AR integrates seamlessly into this agent-driven ecosystem, ensuring that AR guidance is not only contextually relevant but also dynamically optimized by AI to deliver measurable value where it matters most.

Showcasing AR Innovation at AES

Augmentir is showcasing these new AR features this week at the Augmented Enterprise Summit (AES) in Dallas, TX. Attendees will see firsthand how Augmentir’s AR add-on accelerates onboarding and training, provides just-in-time support for complex tasks, and seamlessly integrates into the broader Connected Worker experience.

Built on the foundation of Augmentir’s Augie Industrial GenAI Suite and AI Agent Studio, the new AR capabilities extend the platform’s ability to deliver intelligent, adaptive support across the frontline. By combining AR with AI-driven agents and GenAI, Augmentir continues to redefine what’s possible for industrial companies—helping workers perform at their best and enabling manufacturers to achieve new levels of productivity, agility, and workforce resilience.

ETQ and Augmentir Launch the Industry’s First Connected Quality Solution – the ETQ Reliance Connected Worker Solution Extends Quality Management to the Factory Floor

Partnership is a Key Step in ETQ’s Connected Worker Strategy and Expands the Business Impact of Holistic Quality Management Across the Enterprise

October 17, 2023 – ETQ, part of Hexagon, and Augmentir, the world’s leading connected worker solution provider, today launched the ETQ Reliance Connected Worker solution to make the connected frontline worker on the factory floor a key part of the quality management process. As an initial step in this strategy, ETQ has integrated its ETQ Reliance quality management system (QMS) Quality Events application with Augmentir’s connected worker platform. ETQ and Augmentir will now provide customers with a holistic connected worker quality solution for manufacturing environments.

“ETQ is committed to creating a quality-driven manufacturing ecosystem by extending quality management to the factory floor and the connected worker,” said Vick Vaishnavi, CEO, ETQ. “Through our key partnership with Augmentir in the connected worker space, we’re providing data-driven actions and insights and empowering workforces – at scale – with the tools and knowledge needed to deliver the highest levels of safety, quality and productivity by making workers part of the quality business process value chain.”

Augmentir is a suite of AI-powered connected worker tools that help industrial companies deliver effective skills management, training and collaborative digital workflows, by digitizing and optimizing frontline work processes. Integrating ETQ Reliance with the Augmentir platform, provides a closed-loop quality management ecosystem that enables manufacturers to break down silos and automate valuable factory-floor data to mitigate the impact of poor quality, while driving continuous improvement.

“The integration of ETQ Reliance with our connected worker platform truly extends the value of enterprise quality management to the frontlines,” said Russ Fadel, CEO and Co-Founder at Augmentir. “Thanks to this integration, ETQ customers will be able to track, trend, investigate and proactively address a range of quality and safety events that arise in manufacturing – from product design to supplier quality to factory floor issues – to reduce the costs of poor quality.”

“Industrial organizations face many challenges as they navigate transformation initiatives, coupled with workforce challenges such as worker shortages, the impending ‘great retirement’ of the aging workforce, and the rise of the digital native,” said James Wells, Research Analyst, LNS Research. “These workforce dynamics are creating an urgency for connected worker-based initiatives, such as the integration between a QMS leader like ETQ and a CFW (connected frontline worker) leader like Augmentir. It’s a significant step forward in creating a seamless experience for the worker supported by a symphony of ‘system of systems’ software applications in service of bringing workers’ insights, knowledge, and experiences to bear on the full ecosystem of enterprise-wide quality.”
